Applying the DOVE Factors: An Example
{"Image DocumentName": "Applying the DOVE Factors: An Example", "Image ImageDescription": "Background. As a child and adolescent, Evangelina Cruz, PhD, had experienced both victimization and discrimination. She developed a desire to help others at a very young age, had been reared with strong values regarding education, and saw becoming a psychotherapist as the way to achieve her goal of helping others and making a difference. She worked hard in school. Despite economic obstacles, she was accepted at a prestigious university, and subsequently a professional preparation program of equal rank, one that had a strong emphasis on multiculturalism and feminism. It was just what she had hoped for. Cruz was an outstanding student and won a coveted internship at a large urban mental health center that specialized in treating trauma victims and torture survivors. This position allowed her to develop expertise in treatment approaches for women with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Her scholarly writing and public advocacy won her a number of early career awards and the respect of her col\u00adleagues who saw her as a dedicated and self- sacrificing professional who was a strong advocate for her clients. These experiences deepened her personal values and increased her desire to help the disempowered, exactly what her professional education would now provide her the opportunity to do.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
